While dh-lisp has moved to the Salsa team space, its Vcs-* fields
haven't been updated in an upload yet. This makes the move invisible to
those who don't check Salsa before an NMU. To fix this, I'm volunteering
to perform a team upload (or NMU, whichever you prefer). I've also
attached a commit to upgrade the package to Standards-Version 4.7.3, and
I'm happy to submit this as a MR at your preference.

Additionally, cl-regex (Bug #1117525) has reverse dependencies that
prevent its removal. I'm happy to create a repository for it on Salsa to
ensure it remains maintainable. Should I place this in the Common Lisp
team space, or would you prefer it move to the Debian team space if no
specific uploader steps forward?



Streamlining Team Contributions

On a broader note, I've found the contribution workflow for the Common
Lisp team a bit restrictive compared to other Debian teams. Currently,
permissions seem to be granted on a per-repository basis (as was the
case when I worked on cl-launch), which can be a time-consuming barrier
for contributors.

Would the team be open to granting broader Salsa permissions to
experienced packagers? This "low-threshold" approach used by many other
teams encourages more proactive maintenance and reduces the
administrative burden of asking for access for every individual
repository.



Updating unmaintained cl-* packages

Finally, there are about 35 cl- packages* currently associated with
Dimitri Fontaine that appear to be unmaintained, with none, outdated or
inaccessible Vcs-Git fields. I'm willing to help clean these up and
clarify maintainership.

Before I start, I'd like to know if the Common Lisp team would prefer to
keep these within the team (with the necessary permissions to work on
them effectively) or if I should look into migrating them to the Debian
team.


Kind regards
   Andreas.
